FileMaker to Laravel
Your FileMaker database served you well for years. Now it's time for something that can keep up with your business
I'll quote you a fixed price to get there.
Sound Familiar?
Only two people in the company actually understand how the system works. If they leave, you're in trouble.
Remote access is a nightmare. FileMaker Server works, but it's slow and clunky for users outside the office.
Performance degrades with every new user. What used to be snappy now takes forever.
FileMaker licensing costs keep climbing. Per-seat fees add up fast, especially with remote teams.
Finding FileMaker developers is increasingly difficult. The talent pool is shrinking every year.
What I Do
I take your FileMaker system and rebuild it in Laravel. Same business logic, same workflows your team already knows, but on modern technology.
Migrate your data structures to MySQL or PostgreSQL
Recreate your scripts and business logic in Laravel
Build a modern web interface that works in any browser
Preserve the workflows your team already knows
Add features FileMaker couldn't handle—integrations, APIs, mobile access
How It Works
Discovery
I document your existing FileMaker system—every table, script, relationship, and workflow. The goal is to understand not just what it does, but why.
Analysis
Map out the data relationships and business logic. Identify what needs to be migrated as-is and what can be improved.
Development
Build the Laravel application in phases, with regular check-ins so you can see progress and provide feedback along the way.
Migration
Transfer your data with zero loss. Every record, every relationship, verified and validated.
Training
Get your team up to speed on the new system. The goal is for them to feel at home, not lost.
What You Get
Browser-Based Access
Works from anywhere—office, home, or mobile. No client software to install.
Unlimited Users
No more per-seat licensing. Add users without adding costs.
Modern Security
Industry-standard authentication, encryption, and backup practices.
Easy to Maintain
Laravel developers are everywhere. You'll never be stuck again.
Better Performance
Scales properly. Handles concurrent users without slowing down.
Modern Integrations
Connect to any API, payment processor, or third-party service.
